Richmond Hill Real Estate Market & History
Richmond Hill is located just 20 km due north of Toronto squeezed between the townships of Vaughan and Markham. In the early 19th century, the area was dubbed Miles’ Hill, after a local prosperous businessman. However, the village was renamed Richmond Hill in 1820. The thriving farming community grew by 9 percent each year attracting well-to-do families who built beautiful, expansive estates in the area.
Trains and Roses. Not surprisingly Yonge Street became the major route serving farmers traveling to Toronto’s markets. In 1853 the Ontario, Simcoe and Huron Railway opened a line with a stop in Richmond Hill.
In 1872, the area was incorporated as a village. The town became known as the rose capital of Canada at the turn of the century with the arrival of several large greenhouses. The businesses were well suited to the town’s official motto “Like the rose, I flourish.”

Whether you are seeking a heritage home, new build or a mid-century home in a quiet subdivision, the city offers housing for all budgets and lifestyles. The area now also boasts its fair share of condos, with a burgeoning skyline attracting people interested in the condo life, but not so keen on Toronto’s condo jungle. Richmond Hill manages to maintain some of the best mature neighborhoods north of the GTA such as Mill Pond. However, the town’s popularity is most noted with the growing value of its homes.
